Series

The Simpsons (8 p.m., Fox) reruns the one in which Bart uncovers the truth about boy bands; 'N Sync shows up for humiliation, self-inflicted and otherwise. On a rerun of Dawson's Creek (8 p.m., WB), Joey has too many responsibilities and too little time to study, and Jack and Jen attend a seminar for gay teens. Get ready for next Sunday's season opener with last season's finale of Sex and the City (9 p.m., HBO), in which Carrie is bedeviled by a cock -- the kind that crows outside her window at 5 a.m. The school band spends spring break on a concert trip to China on American High (10:30 p.m., PBS, check local listings).

Specials

While "The Simpsons" rip their genre on another network, Howie, Nick, Kevin, Brian and A.J. perform in concert in Backstreet Boys: Larger Than Life (8 p.m., CBS). Unsolved cases, including the alleged UFO crash at Roswell, N.M., are (yawn) reopened in Million Dollar Mysteries (9 p.m., Fox).
